Description
The Bakers Arms Inn and the attached cottage are located on North Street and date from the early 19th century. The inn is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring a Ham stone plinth and quoins, while the cottage is made of Ham stone ashlar. Both buildings have Welsh slate roofs with a shallow pitch and stepped coped gables on the inn, along with brick chimney stacks.
The inn has two storeys, with three bays and irregular fenestration, including one bay of extensions. It features 16-pane sash windows under painted stone lintels, with stone cills above and a 12-pane shop window in the lower bay three. There is a boarded door with a light cut into bay one, framed by a beaded ashlar surround, and to the right of bay two, a 6-panelled door set in a stone architrave. Between the inn and the cottage are two extensions, one with a monopitched roof and the other flat-roofed.
The cottage has small pane casement windows of an early pattern in bay one and a horizontal bar casement in upper bay two, while lower bay two is blocked. There is a boarded door set in a recess between the bays.
The property is marked by railings along the eastern boundaries: the cottage features alternate hoops and spearpoints from the late 19th century, while the inn has railings set 0.5 meters away from the building, with returns to the ends and door jambs, all with cast iron collared spearpoints. These railings contribute to the overall setting of the buildings. The inn appears to have been converted for its current use in the early 20th century and may have previously functioned as a shop.
